I was wondering how others with this tag did in 2013?
I drew this tag as a NR this year. I had never been to the unit and due to work I ended up hunting the second half of the season. I officially got my butt kicked. I saw a total of 4 deer. One small buck. I hunted low in the Domiquez Canyon Wilderness Study Area. All tracks I saw were old and all appeared to be headed east. I kept working my way east hunting lower and lower but I never found much. On the last day I hunted higher up in the oak brush and aspens and saw fresher sign in the snow but still nothing on the hoof. I did find several nice 4 and 5 point bulls but I did not get a tag. I am wondering how others did this year. I know the deer are around but I couldn't find them.
I did see my first desert bighorn so it wasn't all rough.
